Unmatched Real Estate Photography in San Antonio, TX
We've all heard the phrase "A picture is worth a thousand words," and in today's digitally-dominant world, that saying is more poignant than ever. In real estate, pictures have a huge impact on whether a home is sold or passed by. That's especially true in a time when prospective homebuyers are less likely to travel in-person to tour a home in their price range.
With more time on their hands to peruse real estate listings, buyers are inundated with all sorts of images, which is why your real estate photos must stand out from the crowd. Once buyers filter through property locations, pricing, nearby school districts, and square footage, they want to flip through photos. If your pictures aren't up to snuff, you can be sure the homebuyer will move to the next listing.
Fortunately, Twist Tours is here to provide you with high-resolution, creative photography for your real estate needs - whether you're listing a brand-new home or selling a property that has been on the market too long.
We believe Twist Tours stands apart because we do more than capturing a visual record of a home. Instead, your Twist Tours real estate photographer develops an emotional bridge between potential buyers and real estate listings by enhancing the home's true character.

Aerial Video and Photography Services for Real Estate
Nothing showcases your property quite like professional aerial video and photography. With our drone photography services, you can turn lookers into buyers by giving them a unique vantage point of your commercial or residential property. If you're looking to set your real estate business apart from your competition, drone photography and video is the way to go.
Aerial photography adds an extra layer of "special" to your real estate photos, taking your listing from dull to downright beautiful. Sellers want to work with agents willing to entertain creative ways to sell homes. Buyers want to see every nook and cranny of the home they're interested in buying. With aerial real estate photography, you get the best of both worlds.
Benefits of aerial real estate photography and video include:
Property Location
If you're a real estate expert, we bet you're used to hearing the saying "location, location, location." One of the greatest benefits of aerial real estate photography is the chance to see where a home is located with respect to parks, restaurants, and other attractions. If you need to capture the entirety of a property's layout, take to the skies.
Property Accuracy
Taking pictures is one of the most important steps in selling a home. Generally, exterior real estate photos are taken from common locations like driveways, back yards, and on decks. Aerial real estate photography and videography can show a more accurate, robust depiction of a home for sale, giving buyers a more complete picture of the home they're looking to buy.
Tell a Better Story
Excellent storytelling is one of the most reliable keys to real estate sales. On the one hand, buyers want to know exactly where their money will be going when buying a home. On the other hand, sellers want to work with an agent who has more than the typical tools of the trade on hand. When coupled with interactive virtual tours, hiring a Twist real estate videographer in San Antonio, TX can help realtors tell a more captivating story.
Commercial Real Estate Photography Services
Ever considered professional real estate photography for your commercial business needs? Making a first strong impression is an incredible asset to your business. Doing so is equally as important for commercial purposes as it is for residential real estate reasons. With Twist Tours, your prospective clients can access online 3D virtual tours filled with stunning HDR real estate photography to give them a full picture of what you're selling. With our floor plan and room planner tours, you can even implement our real estate photos in your print marketing materials.
But that's just the start. A few additional benefits of commercial real estate photography include:
1.
Give Buyers What They Want:
The Wall Street Journal recently published a piece about the best ways to sell a commercial property. Their research found that buyers spent 60% of their time looking at photos on a property page. Knowing this, you must find creative ways to make your listings and marketing materials stand out. A lack of dazzling, positive imagery could mean you lose out on a sale or a tenant.
2.
More Clicks and Shares:
When prospective buyers or tenants are captivated by a real estate photo, they are very likely to click through to your website. Pictures with the right mix of professionalism and pizzaz are also share-worthy, meaning your commercial property for sale will reach a wider audience.
3.
Get That Great First Impression:
For buyers or tenants to take your commercial property seriously, your real estate images must make a positive impression by being HDR, modern, and beautiful.
Do the Twist
Guess what? At Twist Tours, we love our clients. Not just because of the fantastic relationships we've formed with builders, brokers, owners, designers, agents, and their staff - but because they get it. They know how important a strong first impression can be in the real estate industry. The only thing we love more than meeting new clients is helping them grow their business.

What are the Spurs’ chances of following Wembanyama with another No. 1 overall pick?

Spurs finished 2023-24 with the NBA’s fifth-worst record. How will their second 22-60 finish in a row translate in the draft lottery?
SAN ANTONIO – In May 2023, the San Antonio Spurs won the NBA Draft Lottery after being tied with two other franchises for the best odds to earn the rights to the No. 1 overall draft pick.
One year later, the silver and black replicated the same 22-60 record they ended 2022-23 with — which is now good for a 10.5% chance to win back-to-back lotteries. The Spurs’ chances are in a good position to land a top-five pick, at worst, ahead of this summer’s draft.
Recommended Videos
San Antonio could also receive a second pick in the lottery after receiving a first-round selection from Toronto at the 2023 NBA trade deadline for former Spurs center Jakob Poeltl.
Whether or not that top-six protected pick is sent to San Antonio depends on whether the 25-57 Raptors land in the top six in the lottery or not.
Keep your eyes on the drawing of ping-pong balls for the top four picks on lottery night. How the lottery order shakes out will determine Toronto’s fate (9% odds to receive the top overall pick) — either leaping into a higher pick or a team behind them could push the Raptors out.
While drafting No. 1 this year is very different than drafting No. 1 last year, attaining the top pick could give the front office rare flexibility only two NBA teams (Houston Rockets in 1983-84; Orlando Magic in 1992-93) have ever had before.
As we knew then and have been assured now, the Spurs won the ultimate jackpot by winning the opportunity to draft the French “alien.” So, this time around, the goal is to build around Wembanyama.
Wembanyama is in the running to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award and has made a strong argument for NBA Defensive Player of the Year. However, the Wembanyama-led Spurs still have a lot to accomplish this offseason if they want his success to convert to the winning column.
The position San Antonio will likely be focused on elevating this offseason is at point guard. The Spurs’ coaching staff made many attempts at filling this void this season, in the era of “position-less basketball.” Still, a shortfall at the position remains.
The best available point guard in this year’s draft is Kentucky’s Rob Dillingham (6′3″, 176 pounds). Dillingham wrapped up his freshman season with the Wildcats where he primarily came off the bench and still averaged 15.2 points and 3.9 assists in 23 minutes per game. The Hickory, North Carolina, native is an obvious fit for the Spurs who need proficient guard play and someone who can run the offense.
Other top point guards available in the draft are Nikola Topic from Serbia, UConn’s Stephon Castle, Isaiah Collier from USC, Jared McCain out of Duke, and Kentucky’s D.J. Wagner.
There is no clear-cut top prospect currently, but Alexandre Sarr (PF/C, Perth Wildcats) out of France makes a strong case for the first overall selection. Sarr is 7-foot-1 and, at 18 years old, has the highest upside defensively.
Sarr is one of a handful of French prospects valued high in this year’s draft, including Zaccharie Risacher and Tidjane Salaun. Risacher (SG/SF, JL Bourg-en-Bresse) is a proven scorer, making 43.8% of his long-range shots as a 6-foot-8 wing.
Wembanyana was asked on The Ringer podcast if he knew anything about the French prospects.
“What — of course,” Wembanyama said with a smile. “These are all guys I’ve known for years.”
Wembanyama’s rise has played a part in French ballplayers getting serious looks from the NBA.
“I think the system is catching up on all of the talent we have in France,” Wembanyama told The Ringer Podcast host Kevin O’Connor. “We have an incredible pool of players — physically, but also real basketball players.”
Both Wembanyama and fellow French big Rudy Gobert of the Minnesota Timberwolves are the top favorites to win this year’s NBA Defensive Player of the Year award.
The NBA Draft Lottery will be held on May 12 in Chicago followed by the 2024 NBA Draft on June 26-27.

Day two of the NBA Playoffs launches the remaining four series

Two of today’s games did not have a second opponent until the close of the Play-in games, both the Miami Heat and New Orleans Pelicans ended victoriously. In the end, neither ninth or tenth seed from either conference made the playoffs and in the East.
The day kicks off at 12:00 with the most interesting series of the day. The Boston Celtics host the Miami Heat. The Celtics have been positioned as the top seed for a while, having made changes last summer to make the full run. Only the memory of being upset by an underdog Heat can hinder their goal, but without Butler, this series should be a breeze for Boston.
2:30 PM- The Los Angeles Clippers host the Dallas Mavericks. As we all know, NBA Finals odds lower greatly without key players. Jimmy Butler is out in Miami. Zion Williamson is out in New Orleans. And the Clippers fate, as always, is tied to Kawhi Leonard.
I must admit, in recent years, I’d suffered Kawhi fatigue and am not sure how many games he plays (outside of San Antonio) each season. Actually, I was surprised to see the Clippers so high in the standings. Alas, it appears Leonard is out.
Meanwhile, Dallas is making the playoffs after missing last season. Doncic is a contender for league MVP and now is the time for Jason Kidd to prove the Luka and Kyrie Irving experiment works, or else consider blowing it up this summer.
6:00 PM- Indiana Pacers at Milwaukee Bucks. Add Giannis Antetokounmpo to the list of star players who are unavailable to start the playoffs. A Greek Freak-less Bucks increases the Indiana Pacers odds, but does it dial up the hype? This season, the Pacers and Bucks have had more drama than any other two teams. From Halliburton ribbing Lillard’s “Dame Time” to Antetokounmpo’s rushing into the Pacers locker room to retrieve a game ball, this game has the potential to be the most emotionally charged on-court match up of the first round.
8:30 PM- The New Orleans Pelicans are in Oklahoma City. The Thunder are the top seed. Anyone who had them at the top since the beginning of the season exhibited crystal ball vision. Watching OKC, and especially the emergence of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, raises the question if the league is ready for a new champion.

In first road test, Panthers flame out against Brahmas

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Last week against the Houston Roughnecks, it looked like the Michigan Panthers had finally found their offense. And ahead of a lengthy road trip that won’t see the Panthers play at home again until May 5.
But Saturday’s game against the San Antonio Brahmas would suggest the complete opposite. There were lashes of sparks, a deep pass to Marcus Simms, a few quarterback scrambles from EJ Perry and even a fake punt, but it didn’t matter as the Panthers lost 19-9.
“We didn’t play very well, they did,” head coach Mike Nolan said. “There’s not much to brag on, as far as that game went”
Michigan found themselves down 16-0 before Perry led the Panthers on a short drive to set up a 49-yard field goal from Jake Bates just before halftime. Michigan would outscore San Antonio 6-3 in the second half but it wasn’t enough.
The Brahmas recorded six sacks in the game against a depleted Panthers offensive line. Perry, and his back up Danny Etling faced pressure seemingly every single time they dropped back to pass.
Perry did sustain an injury in the third quarter and Etling came in. He threw a 42-yard touchdown to Simms in the fourth quarter and after converting a 4th and 12, the Panthers retained possession to make the game a bit closer.
Unfortunately, Etling was sacked during that drive and his desperation 4th and 20 heave was intercepted. Etling finished the day with two turnovers.
No new information on the severity of Perry’s injury has been released but Nolan said he has confidence in Etling if his starting quarterback misses any extended time.
The defense for the Panthers did play well, only giving up two touchdowns and safety Kai Nacua continued his dominating play with another interception. The Brahmas’ quarterback, Quinten Dormandy, was making his first career start in this one.
The Panthers fall to 2-2 on the year and now take aim to the Memphis Showboats next Sunday.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Everyone has seen a flyover, right? The fighter jets that are somehow timed up to fly over the stadium right as the national anthem singer finishes “home of the brave.”
But have you ever heard of a military flyunder?
It’s not a technical term. Merriam-Webster doesn’t recognize it as a real word, and the U.S. military would like to pretend it has never happened, but there has been at least one military flyunder on record: when a West Michigan pilot flew his Air Force B-47 Stratojet bomber underneath the Mackinac Bridge.
There are not of a lot of details confirmed on the record, but it happened. John Lappo, from Muskegon, lived the tale. And while the Air Force may not have anything to say about it, the late Lappo’s story lives on 65 years after the controversial flight.
‘I’M TAKING HER UNDER’
On April 24, 1959, Captain Lappo, a 12-year Air Force veteran, was up early to take part in a nighttime simulated bombing run early. As the crew flew near the Straits of Mackinac, heading back toward Lockbourne Air Force Base in Ohio, Lappo decided to fulfill one of his pilot fantasies.
Lappo confessed to the Detroit Free Press in 1976 that he had always wanted to fly under a Bridge.
“When I was flying missions to the Far East, I was a co-pilot, and I wanted to fly under the Golden Gate at night. But I couldn’t induce the pilot to do it,” he confessed.
This time, in the lead driver’s seat, he decided to indulge himself. He told his two crewmembers, “I’m taking her under.”
Lappo said everyone was excited about the idea except his navigator, who warned him against it.
To be fair to the navigator, he had a good point. There are plenty of reasons not to do it.
For one, you are unnecessarily putting lives at risk — the people on the plane and on the bridge. Two, if you damage government property, whether it is the million-dollar bomber or the Mackinac Bridge, you are in for a world of trouble. And three, it’s illegal.
Need another excuse? It’s a death-defying feat. Never mind the science that allows a giant hunk of metal to soar at great heights and at great speeds. The Mackinac Bridge hangs approximately 150 feet above the Straits. A B-47 is nearly 28 feet tall with a wingspan of 116 feet and would be coming in at screaming speeds. There is little margin for error.
Still, Lappo pressed on.
He remembered there were only two vehicles on the bridge at the time — a car and a truck both heading north toward St. Ignace. While it was a clear, sunny day, he was flying in a “stiff breeze” that whipped up “whitecaps” in the straits. Lappo took his dive, leveled off at approximately 75 feet and made his legendary pass under the Mighty Mac. The rest is history.
A FLIGHT TO REMEMBER
There were no cameras that captured the stunt. It didn’t even make the local newspapers. Still, word of mouth spread through the ranks. Eventually, top brass caught wind of it.
Remember that navigator? Lappo believes he was the one who turned him in, telling the Free Press, “I didn’t know at the time that his father was the general and he was going to go rat on me when we got back.”
Lappo was grounded in more ways than one. The Muskegon native faced a court martial hearing, at which he admitted to his antics. Several character witnesses were presented to try to save face, testifying not only to Lappo’s skill and bravado, but to his integrity, highlighted by the fact that he confessed to the accusations.
One colonel called Lappo a “man’s man” and that “he can serve with me any time, any place.” Another military leader said he had never met a better pilot. Yet another described the stunt as dangerous in the hands of an amateur, but for a professional like Lappo, it was “no more difficult or risky than taking his boots off at night.”
The Strategic Air Command removed Lappo from flying duty and imposed a $300 fine to be paid off in monthly $50 increments. His salary was also cut from $860 to $660 per month.
That December, the SAC affirmed its ruling. Lappo would never fly for the Air Force again.
While he was grounded, his military career wasn’t over. A 2017 profile by MLive says Lappo served in the Air Force for another 18 years before retiring as a lieutenant colonel in 1972.
He lived out the second half of his life in Alaska. He didn’t have a B-47 bomber, but Lappo had smaller planes that he used to cruise the skies once again.
Before Lappo’s death in 2003, writer Kenny Shepherd pressed him again. Why take the risk? Why put your career — and your life — on the line?
“Why do men climb mountains? Or what motivates them to go into space?” Lappo said. “It’s just a sense of adventure that some men have, and some don’t.”
Michigan Panthers dominated in 19-9 loss to San Antonio Brahmas in United Football League

The Michigan Panthers lost their starting quarterback, but they couldn't get anything going on offense, no matter who was under center.
As a result, the Panthers lost to the San Antonio Brahmas, 19-9, on Saturday night in the Alamodome to fall to 2-2 in the inaugural UFL season.
E.J. Perry left the game in the third quarter with an apparent hamstring injury after successfully cobbling together a field goal drive. Danny Etling replaced him, completing 11 of 15 passes for 105 yards, but the comeback ended after he fumbled late trying to escape pressure after a late touchdown to Marcus Simms.
San Antonio closed the game out after building a comfortable 16-3 lead in the first half. The Brahmas' defensive line set the tone by living in the Panthers' backfield while quarterback Quinten Dormady started hot, finishing 23 of 37 for 269 yards and a touchdown.
The Panthers' offensive line couldn't slow down the pass rush, giving up six sacks and committing three holding penalties. The pass protection issues coupled with the early deficit hamstrung a Michigan offense that came into the game firing on all cylinders.
The Panthers fell to 2-2 in the United Football League, while San Antonio moved to 3-1.
Pressure bounces Perry, handcuffs Panthers offense
Perry suffered the leg injury in a play that happened often in the loss.
He pulled up lame after stepping out of a sack on a tackle, grabbing at his hamstring. Perry was sacked five times and had to escape a handful of other attempts as the Brahmas' defensive line dominated the Panthers.
San Antonio jumped out to an early 10-0 lead with an opening drive touchdown and a field goal after a quick stop on the Panthers' first drive.
The best chance at a touchdown came in the second quarter, after head coach Mike Nolan successfully called a fake punt that resulted in a 24-yard gain into San Antonio territory, but a sack ended the drive. Michigan reached the red zone with two first-down runs, but Perry was crushed by Tim Ward on a sack and fumbled to the Brahmas. Kai Nacua intercepted a pass on the next possession, but Michigan's offense couldn't get that close again.
The next drive ended on a third-down sack, setting up a second San Antonio touchdown drive to go up 16-0 a minute before halftime. Jake Bates got Michigan on the board with a 49-yard kick after Perry put together a quick drive right before intermission.
But, the second half was the same for the offense.
Michigan went three-and-out on their first two possessions with Perry in the game which were hurt by a sack, a holding, and the final pressure that knocked the quarterback from the game. He completed seven of 13 passes for 77 yards and had a team-high 49 rushing yards, all on scrambles to avoid sacks.
Etling had the offense moving better, but couldn't get points until the game was out of reach. His first drive ended with a incomplete pass after he was flushed from the pocket, then he fumbled with 7:49 left after he tried to pick up a first down escaping a sack.
Etling found Marcus Simms for a 41-yard touchdown on the left sideline on his third drive to make it 19-9 San Antonio with 3:25 left. Michigan went for a two-point conversion but Etling was sacked. Michigan picked up the onside conversion, which is a successful fourth-and-12 conversion in the UFL, to get the ball back, but Etling was sacked again on third down, setting up an insurmountable fourth-and-20 they could not convert.
The Brahmas finished with six sacks, two forced fumbles and an interception on a late heave from Etling in the waning moments. The Panthers ran for 111 yards on 17 attempts, but the deficit made them lean on the pass and the San Antonio pass rush blew up that effort.
San Antonio sets tone in first half
The Brahmas scored 16 of their 19 points in the first half after the Panthers' defense shut down the offense in the second half.
San Antonio got the ball first and scored on a quick eight-play drive to go up 7-0 on a John Lovett touchdown run. Michigan opened with a punt, and the Brahmas added a field goal after a 43-yard pass from Dormady to Jontre Kirklin.
The Brahmas executed the two-minute drill to perfection at the end of the first half, with Dormady connecting on three passes for first downs then finding Marquez Stevenson in the flat for a 4-yard touchdown to go up 16-0.
The Brahmas only scored the field goal off a short field thanks to the Etling fumble, but the defensive effort made that enough. San Antonio picked up 220 of the team's 305 yards in the first half, while Dormady went into break with 200 yards.
